Petrol in your diesel car in Great Milton? You've come to the right place. We are here to aid you in this hour of need and get you going once again with our expert wrong fuel removal services.

It was after five pm on a Saturday and though we were guaranteed a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring! Ryan and I were seated there talking over the tennis, ready for the sixth call for the day to arrive. In due time we received the call from a woman on a company excursion who had arrived at the BP petrol station in Great Milton and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Suzuki lease car in error. She was quite troubled apparently, saying "I just can't believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I completely didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" We advised her to relax and not to worry, also that such things can happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle into a protected space and, since it was only a few miles off from our van, we could find the lady almost instantly. The bad fuel was taken out and she was able to return to the motel she was lodging in. Even though we got very drenched, it was all worth the time seeing her drive off satisfied and not so stressed. Another misfuel correction in Oxfordshire well done in my opinion!

Our assistance is entirely mobile and we can come out regardless of wherever you are and have the vehicle drained, flushed and working just as before in no time - and at an affordable price!

These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue Contamination

In Oxfordshire we are identifying increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly a result of drivers not understanding how to work with it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to one another on the car.

Well, what exactly is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Since the product is mostly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

In case you discover youself to be in this situation do not panic! Call us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our engineers have got the specialised expertise and experience to get you back on the road promptly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious matter to deal with in an automobile - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel tank will likely produce idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both cases quite swiftly.

Bear in mind though that any time the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored close to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to access the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel container laying in the rear of the garden containing aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and business properties in Oxfordshire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or even some drums in a shed, as long as we are able to access it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Great Milton (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a full Oxfordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to re-fill your vehicle in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill your car. They are also able to handle any of the common troubles that may come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Great Milton - Great Milton Fuel Rescue

A couple weeks ago a motorist phoned us right after his Volvo stopped working along a street in Great Milton. He had mistakenly put petrol in his diesel motor and got to the street before having to halt. It was yet in the early hours of the morning and our technical engineer, who resides close by, arrived with him in approximately a quarter hour. We managed to drain the incorrect fuel and put fresh diesel yet again in to the vehicle. "Thank you for your prompt response, especially at 3 a.m., I appreciate it."
